OpenPayd Wins ‘Best Early-Stage or Future Payments Initiative’ Award for Stablecoin Infrastructure Innovation

OpenPayd, a leading provider of financial infrastructure, has won the ‘Best Early-Stage or Future Payments Initiative’ award at the Cards and Payments Awards in recognition of its stablecoin infrastructure, enabling businesses to receive, hold, convert, and send stablecoins globally.

OpenPayd was selected from a highly competitive shortlist featuring major global financial and payments players, including NatWest, Visa, Elavon, U.S. Bank, SummaPay, Baanx, and CompoSecure.

OpenPayd’s stablecoin infrastructure, which was launched less than 12 months ago, delivers a rails-agnostic solution that enables businesses to embed stablecoins into payment flows in the same way they use fiat - supporting real-time cross-border movement of value with minimal friction.

“This award is a great milestone for OpenPayd and a strong validation of the work we’re doing to modernise global payments infrastructure,” said Iana Dimitrova, CEO at OpenPayd. “Being recognised alongside some of the most established names in financial services highlights the increasing demand for stablecoin-enabled payment rails that are scalable, compliant, and built for enterprise adoption.”

OpenPayd’s stablecoin infrastructure is designed to help financial institutions, fintechs, and global businesses unlock new capabilities, including:

●     Receiving and sending stablecoin payments globally

●     Holding and managing stablecoins alongside fiat

●     Instant cross-border settlement

●     Seamless conversion between stablecoins and traditional currencies

●     Embedding stablecoins into existing treasury and payment workflows

Unlike siloed or blockchain-specific solutions, OpenPayd’s rails-agnostic infrastructure provides the flexibility businesses need to operate across multiple networks and payment ecosystems, delivering real-time settlement without sacrificing usability or control.

The award reinforces OpenPayd’s position at the forefront of next-generation payments, as stablecoins increasingly become a mainstream tool for faster, more efficient global commerce
